    Not good value for money. Food ok, but nothing special, except the oxtail, that was really good. Too small portions. At Barcelona you can find better food at lower prices.

    Food is good. Prisoners running a asylum 😟pity for them....place in no men's land and no taxi service.it's a big joke. No help from the young and unprofessional staff....

    No entiendo que hayan personas que, por culpa de un servicio de Taxi, el cual no tenemos competencias, y que ese día no tenían unidades disponibles, haga cambiar de opinión de la misma experiencia del restaurante cuando durante la cena todo eran elogios por su parte. Me parece destructivo a todo el esfuerzo y trabajo de todo el equipo

    The food was delicious, but the total check is a bit high for that type of family restaurant. Size. Of dishes very small for the price .we had expectations of bigger plates. Also one menu for two people… that’s not serious;)

    Little cozy restaurant easily accessible… ambience is typical Spanish tavern…. Food was excellent and not very expensive… great wines but a bit pricey…waitress was knowledgeable about food and offered great recommendations… overall great experience.. plan on returning and hoping that it would offer earlier service

    We are sooooooo happy that we came to Can Pineda. We arrived early and had reservations. We were greeted by the staff who were all super friendly and helpful. We asked for recommendations and they help us order our meal. We had a total of eight people so we were able to try a lot of different dishes from the menu. Of course we over ordered and we're glad we did because we were able to sample a wide variety of food from Seafood two different types of meats. We also ordered salads that were absolutely spectacular. I don't remember any of the names but we did not find any dish that we did not like. The food and presentation is absolutely decadent. We left a credibly stuffed. Absolutely amazing food and will definitely be back.

    I had the best experience at Can Pineda. Making the reservation online was easy. The staff were so nice and welcoming. The restaurant was cozy and not pretentious. The food was delicious. I ordered a special of grilled local mushrooms and a poached egg. I don’t really like eggs but I enjoyed the dish. I can’t recommend this place enough. I’m definitely coming back next time I’m in Barcelona

    The title as one of the BEST AUTHENTIC Catalan restaurant in Barcelona is definitely true!!! Can Pineda is a hole in a wall traditional Catalan restaurant…it’s not a hyper fashionable place due to it’s history but the cuisine is sublime. It is not cheap by Spanish standards, but its WELL worth it for the service and the delicious food. The perfect restaurant to discover the true Catalan cuisine! A big chapeau to all the staff of Rest Canpineda for making the whole birthday experience a little bit more special for my friend even though I informed them about his birthday at the very last minute.

    A classic among classics. Top kitchen and service. Since they base their specialities on seasonal ingredients you have to be prepared for some, but few, ‘a la carte’ items missing. In any case, call in whenever possible.

    Lovely restaurant! Food is superb. Each of our dishes - bean salad, oxtails, and scallops were expertly prepared. The food was served with a true concern for our overall dining experience.

    Great food and service. Authentic Catalan cuisine away from the tourist crowds. Definitely try the oysters & a nice bottle of wine. Probably the best food we had in Barcelona.

    Our best dining experience in Spain. It’s a family run restaurant with fantastic food, very fun and friendly staff. Great dishes to share - Tomato salad, morels with pork belly, aubergine with miso and almonds, scallops carbonara. Lobster rice is a must. It’s a little out of the way but so so so worth it

    This restaurant is a gem in the Barcelona restaurant scene. We enjoyed it so much the first time, we went back 2 more times during our stay. The service is excellent, ambiance just so real, and the food was phenomenal! Don't miss this one when visiting this beautiful city!

    My experience was wonderful at Can Pineda! I had authentic food that filled me up! I started with a cerviche and iberico. Both were delicious. I had the stuffed cabbage for dinner. The meat stuffed inside melted in your mouth! It was fabulous. Then for desert I had the chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. I was so full and satisfied after my experience. The wait staff was very friendly and the food was affordable. They have a menu in english which was great. They made great recommendations. I will definitely be back!

    An absolutely lovely evening and we will be back before leaving Barcelona. The service was just lovely - they recommended a combination of tapas and entree's to share and it worked out perfectly. The duck confit w/ rice, mackerel sashimi, gambas and oxtail were all excellent. This is a favorite when in Barcelona and I highly recommend Can Pineda

    Excellent food, creative and delicious. Waiter brought the right appetizers and the right amount for party of 9 and deserts as well, we just picked the main courses. I had the duck, quail eggs with foie gras, the fried artichoke hearts, lobster rice and bombas for desert. Awesome with Cava and various Riojas.

    My family now wants me to choose every restaurant we go to after selecting Can Pineda last night. The service was quick and officiant, the food was tasty and delicious, and they went out of their way to accommodate my vegan diet by creating a new off-the-menu dish. They even apologized that they only had 2 vegan options for dessert. All in all I’m very pleased, although I will mention that you should expect a high price for this caliber of dinner and I’m pleased that my mom was the one to pick up the check.
